Support our local businesses while giving to a great cause during the Taste of the Beaches

After being cancelled last year due to the back-to-back impacts of Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton, the Tampa Bay Beaches Chamber of Commerce is thrilled to bring this beloved culinary event back to the community. The 2025 Taste of the Beaches presented by Smith & Associates will take place October 4–12th, with a lively kickoff event and free concert on Friday, October 3rd at Horan Park in St. Pete Beach!

This year’s Taste of the Beaches carries extra importance. More than just a celebration of food, the event represents the resilience and recovery of our coastal communities.

Tickets (for one "Taste") are just $10 each, and a portion of the proceeds will benefit Big Brothers Big Sisters of Tampa Bay.

Here how to join this year’s Taste of the Beaches:

  • Step 1: Pick out a Taste you want to try from this list
  • Step 2: Get a ticket for each Taste you want
  • Step 3: Visit the restaurant from October 4th - 12th
  • Step 4: Turn in your ticket and get your Taste
  • Step 5: Repeat!

Join us in celebrating the strength of our beaches, supporting local restaurants, and reminding the world that our community’s spirit is stronger than any storm.
